Sounds like something's wrong with the brake booster or the hose to it

Get that fixed and you should get at least a couple of pumps of the brakes with the motor off

I used to use one long, light braking action when I was driving the Black Widow, and very rarely did I run out of brakes. Once or twice I had to key it back on, but not once did it cause any kind of emergency stop.

You can also use the e-brake for assist if you have a handle, not a pedal.
